ISBN: 9780195324938 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. From the ancient origins of Just War doctrine to utilitarian and retributive theories of punishment, concepts of proportionality have long been an instrumental part of the rule of law and an essential check on government power. These concepts all embody the fundamental value that government and private actions should not be demonstrably excessive relative to their moral and practical justifications. In the American legal system, despite frequent though unacknowledged use of proportionality principles, there is no general theory of what permits courts to invalidate intrusive measures. In...

Steinbeck: Citizen Spy
ISBN: 9780989029391 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 350 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This changes everything we thought we knew about John Steinbeck. After languishing in the CIA's archives for 60 years, a letter is uncovered in John Steinbeck's own hand that shatters everything history tells us about the author's life. Written in 1952, to CIA Director Walter Bedell Smith, Steinbeck makes an offer to become an asset for the Agency during a trip to Europe later that year. More shocking than Steinbeck's letter is Smith's reply accepting John's proposal. Discovered by author Brian Kannard, these letters create the tantalizing proposal that John Steinbeck was, in fact, a CIA spy....

Definitions of what constitutes innovative poetry are innumerable and are offered from every quarter. Some critics and poets argue that innovative poetry concerns free association (John Ashbery), others that experimental poetry is a re-staging of language (Bruce Andrews) or a syntactic and cognitive break with the past (Ron Silliman and Lyn Hejinian). The tenets of new poetry abound. But what of the new reading that such poetry demands? Essays in Reading...

Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam
ISBN: 9781453896181 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 144 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Omar Khayyam was an eleventh and twelfth century Persian mathematician, scientist and poet who left over one thousand ruba'i, or quatrains, of a deeply philosophical nature. Through these short stanzas, Khayyam explored a variety of human themes including life and death, love, nature, beauty, and faith. In 1859, Edward FitzGerald translated, less literally than figuratively and structurally, seventy-five of these into English in the Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam. He continued to refine and expand his work over the course of five editions, issued through 1889. FitzGerald's romanticized translations...
